the Kahr's reset?

No such thing.

It's fairly painful, I'll agree! I had mine handy as I was reading this and checked the reset on it. It looks to be about a full inch of trigger travel before reset! Mostly the follow-up speed requires a lot of practice, because the longer the reset, the more time the rest of your body has to change position while your trigger finger goes off on a long journey alone, wandering the land like Kane in Kung Fu.

I generally see two ways to practice this: The conventional way and the way that is very effective but more traditional instructors risk blood pressure issues even thinking about.

Conventional wisdom is that you practice until you can snap the trigger out exactly enough to reset it and begin the second pull, never losing contact with the trigger face. That's great, when it works or when you have completely mastered it. I would never attempt to argue that there is a faster way, mechanically, to fire the second shot. The second way is to completely come off the trigger, draw the trigger up to 90-95% of the breaking point, pause (talking like .01-.05 sec here, not a long one!), and then break the shot. The infintesimally short pause allows you to settle in and break an accurate second shot rather than having all the drawbacks of slapping the trigger.

Awe shucks... thanks for the complement gut it is all your camera work that makes me look good!!

Modesty in excess. I took the picture but I didn't change it.

[Ceddie]

no but you did take the picture at just the right time.

We both did good - how 'bout that?
